B F# C#m B

[Verse 1]
B
Well
B
I can't make any sense, of all the letters you write
B                                                         F#
It's like your pen doesn't work, you're so much better in type
F#                   C#m                        B
Used to talk all the time, and now we don't any more
B
Guess we don't have the time, it doesn't work any more
B
If the band doesn't work, just get a regular job
B                                                       F#
The pressure's starting to melt into your shirt, it's a lot
C#m                              B
    Is there something we're missing?

[Chorus 1]
      F#           B
We go out with our friends
       F#          B
And we sit, by the Thames
N.C.
Going fishing
E                               B
  I don't need no conversation, please

[Instrumental]
B F# C#m B

[Verse 2]
B
Well
B
We don't die anymore, 'cause we don't smoke anymore
B                                                   F#
And we don't laugh anymore, 'cause we don't joke anymore
F#               C#m                   B
Buy a coat and a car, buy a boat and a chain
B
Buy a house with a moat, by a beautiful stream
B
Buy a phone with a plan, buy a villa abroad
B                                      F#
By the Portuguese Coast, or the Cote d'Azur
C#m               B
    And we can go swimming!

[Chorus 2]
      F#           B
We go out with our friends
       F#          B
And we sit, by the Thames
N.C.
Going fishing
E                               B
  I don't need no conversation, please

[Instrumental]
B F# C#m B

[Verse 3]
B
Ohhhhhh
B
The songs that they're singing, they're just the kind that we like
F#                               C#m
  You're brushing dust from your knuckles
B
  But I'm too pretty to fight
B
I've been reeling the line in, I've been playing for days
F#                   C#m
   If the joke isn't landing
B
  Well I'd be happy to wait

[Chorus 3]
      F#           B
We go out with our friends
       F#          B
And we sit, by the Thames
N.C.
It's all clear now

E                                                            B
All those happy smiling faces, I don't need no conversation, please
B
If you don't love me
           F#
Oh I don't mind
F#         C#m           B
We'll just sit and watch - the tides
